[in-enaction] sites: Metaverse Territories, Architecture, Language, Database...

Diverse thoughts about dividing my time between my life in Paris, France 
and my Second Life in the metaverse, where I go to build with (im)materials.

This site is divided in four :

   1. Metaverse Territories: building with (im)materials;
	http://metaverseterritories.wordpress.com/

   2. Metaverse Architecture: showing SL places, builds & ideas;
	http://metaversearchitecture.wordpress.com/

   3. Metaverse Language: defining, clarifying & inventing strange terms
      to talk about these things;

   4. Image Database: storing the images used throughout these sites.

This blog will take various builds in Second Life (SL) as examples to 
generate, structure and clarify my own thoughts on : a) what it means to 
have an architectural idea in the metaverse; and, b) how is 
architectural space fabricated from (im)materials. I’m using SL because 
I think it happens to be the most adequate metaverse space for this 
because :

   1. all content is user generated;
   2. there is an enormous amount of time, effort and good intentions
	that go into these builds –in other words, people take what they
	do here pretty seriously;
   3. while most content is built by non-professional architects,
	artists, graphists, new-media artists, sculptors, animators etc…
	I think there is a large, visible and engaged community of
	people educated and experienced at building. The clash is an
	interesting one.

I know from experience that the time, effort and perseverance necessary 
to build something meaningful is enormous. My intention is not to be 
“critical” of other SL resident’s builds that I’m using as examples, but 
rather to be critical and constructive in terms of the ideas that they 
inspire in me.
